The recent Race Riot which took place in Tulsa, Oklahoma last week is a lamentable fact. We are sorry to note that Democracy is so slow in its working towards the solving of the great questions affecting the racial groups, of which the Negro forms one; still we are hopeful that those who are in authority shall do their best in helping to bring about a better relation between the white and colored people fo this great country.

As Negroes, we have come to the place in our development where the thing that affects one in whatever place that one may be, touches very close to all of us. We are therefore requesting you, in your high office, to give the same equal justice to the colored race as you are minded to give to the white race. We ask for nothing more; we expect nothing less.

Hoping for the day to come when all men shall solve their problems upon a more humane plane, we beg to remain
